I agree. Maybe it’s because all the games can play with lower graphical settings on older PCs. My desktop was mid-tier in Xbox one days, and has about the same performance as a steam deck. I don’t think there are any games I can’t play.

That’s kinda what I’m thinking too.

It’s going to be weird seeing them introduce next gen stuff at some point. Already my steam deck is like a high end Xbox one and I’m happy with graphics and performance. I can’t imagine seeing any noticeable changes in graphics in the ps6.

It’s so weird that these consoles are in the latter stages of their life. Was it just this generation that was weird or am I just getting old?

It seems that they are not as popular as the Xbox one and ps4 were. Maybe I just checked out of modern gaming.

Well check out gpt4all.

There are a number of different models to download and run.

I think your real challenge is to find the right model.

Do you know any programming languages?

Everything released at 7 was pretty good. Resident evil 4 remake was well done, but the second half of the game was a bit tiresome.

I actually do not like that game as it doesn’t feel like a real resident evil game to me. If they put it in some other universe, I probably would have enjoyed it more.

I have similar worries. I think there will always be some kind of free hardware, but it might be limited to slower arm or risc-v chips. But I doubt there will even be a situation where you can’t have control.

Your second point is not something I’ve considered, but now I’m worried about it and can totally see that being a thing.

To any Linux curious users,

I consider myself to be an intermediate Linux user. I have hosted applications and services on Linux servers in the cloud and use it as my primary operating system. I recommend Linux Mint. If you have an nvidia GPU, then I recommend PopOS as they have a version that has nvidia drivers pre-installed.

When I first started with Linux, I thought that Mint was less capable than other distros as it was the most user friendly. But I learned that you can do anything you want with any Linux distro. It is just that Mint is the least likely to give you trouble with random things.

With that all being said, you will have far fewer issues with Linux than you will with Windows.

Additionally, you can get legit troubleshooting steps for linux that actually work. With Windows it seems that there are 100 ways to possibly fix an issue and they feel like patching a sinking boat.

I think they only started doing this in the past year or so. It is decently new, but I think it is a good move.

Wouldn't this be defeated by people re-uploading the video? I think all these sites will re-encode the videos uploaded so the hash will not match, then people will use that as proof that the video is not real.

I am from the US, my wife is not. I live in her country and Disney releases a different app for each country.

This is a problem, because I have the US app store and she has the app store from her country. So, I cannot log into our disneyplus account on my phone. Or I can get the app and subscribe then, she can't login.

I'd switch my account to the country where we are living, but I can't or I'd lose access to some of my banking apps. So, I don't even have a way to watch it without getting two subscriptions.

Can you explain what makes it a tax haven?

I think it’s because Delaware has really lax laws on incorporating and a special court just for corporate stuff so legal issues can get sorted quickly.

edit

Like in Delaware you can incorporate for like $500 a year and not even need to provide the names of the officers or ceo of the corporation.
